4. Refresher on When to Quote, Paraphrase, and Summarize
Direct Quotation: when you need a passage in its original wording; transcribe the material exactly as it appears, word for word, comma for comma. Make sure to use quotation marks in your notes to distinguish the quotation from summary or paraphrase.
Paraphrase: when you want detailed notes on specific sentences and passages, but do not need the exact wording, you are restating the information in your own words.
Summary: Use a summary when a passage in a source is too long to be effectively quoted or paraphrased.
